CEPSA reinforces its presence in Huelva


Supplier says it is now able to offer an improved service with more flexibility and time-saving.



CEPSA Marine Fuels, S.A. (CMF) has announced that it has reinforced its resources at the Port of Huelva.

The leading supplier said that the project was part of a larger upgrade project being carried out at CEPSA's Huelva refinery, where the company has increased its storage capacity and added new supply facilities.

"Taking advantage of CEPSA’s group and its refinery in Huelva, CMF is coming up with new resources in the Port of Huelva; thus, reinforcing its presence in the area, and so, giving an even better service to its customers in the Strait of Gibraltar," CMF said in a statement.

"CMF boasts a leading position in the ports of Algeciras, Ceuta and Gibraltar. This success is due to the constant quality and reliability of the products that come out directly from CEPSA’s refineries, and the best practices of our experienced people," CMF added.

Bunker deliveries will be carried out via the DECAL facilities, which are connected by pipeline to the Huelva refinery. There will be two new berthing points from where, occasionally, CMF will supply by pipeline, with a dedicated berth for the barge.

The company's double hull barge, the Spabunker 60, will carry out supplies at anchorage. The vessel has a fuel oil capacity of 2,400 metric tonnes and a marine gasoil (MGO) capacity of 680 metric tonnes. Its pumping capacity is 2x600 tonnes for fuel oil and 2x210 tonnes for MGO.

CMF said it will also continue to supply by truck for smaller deliveries.

"With all these notable developments, the Port of Huelva will become a point of reference for bunkering, as it is already a port of significant importance for several industries that have progressed in the area.

"CMF is now ready to offer more flexibility, time-saving and better service in their bunkering activities at the Port of Huelva as well as in the Strait of Gibraltar," CMF said.
